New York City, NY (PRWEB) September 21, 2014

7 Speed Reading™ salutes the efforts of the Nashville Public Library and 23 other libraries for modernizing and strengthening a library’s purpose for learning with the creation of learning labs that appeal to the interests and hobbies of young people.

Speed reading software developer eReflect finds these initiatives to create learning labs for teens a long-overdue operation. Teens across the globe need library resources that match their use of new media. Often, however, outdated curriculum and learning models don’t engage students because they don’t appeal to their predilections, needs, and goals.

Libraries in Nashville, Chicago, and Minnesota have already opened up their learning labs, creating spaces in which teens are welcome to express their creativity and apply their critical thinking skills, as well as “geek out” to their heart’s content.

The idea behind these learning labs in libraries is to promote active learning for young people, and steer them away from outdated learning methodologies that don’t serve them any more. Students that can access these learning labs will have state of the art technology at their fingertips, things like 3D printers, recording booths, and other high-tech equipment and resources to bring their ideas into life.

eReflect congratulates the libraries that took up the challenge of modernization, and which have created these learning labs for students.

As the speed reading software designer confirms, these labs were created through grants by the Institute of Museum and Library Services and the MacArthur Foundation. eReflect considers this to be a commendable initiative that could inspire more communities and libraries across the world to develop their own learning labs and help young, talented teens discover and utilize their skills and abilities to the fullest.

Using new media and technologies to drive learning and education is an obvious solution for education in the 21st century, notes eReflect. Several speed reading software reviews of 7 Speed Reading™ show that tech-based learning is an effective approach to knowledge acquisition. The lack of resources and funding is often the main reason why the majority of educational institutions cannot offer their students what these learning labs are offering: a chance to actively learn through the application of the HOMAGO principle (hanging out, messing around and geeking out). eReflect encourages more libraries to adopt this approach, and encourages teens to provide commentary to help those libraries shape the spaces they need to reach their full potential.
